I'll Be Back - Talking TERMINATOR: GENISYS as Well As Commentaries On Out Now With Aaron & Abe

Hey everyone!  How have you been?  Is your summer going good?  I know I've been away, but I've had quite an eventful and very busy few months and Naptown Nerd had to be placed on the back burner for a bit.  I would've like to have done some retrospectives for all these franchise films coming out this summer (Poltergeist, Insidious, Jurassic Park) but when the time is needed by either work or family, those come first no question.

PODCAST: I Talk FURIOUS 7 On Out Now With Aaron & Abe!

I didn't have time to follow up my Fast & Furious Retrospective with a piece on Furious 7, but this should more than do.  Once again, I was honored to be back on Out Now With Aaron & Abe for a regular episode talking about this past weekend's box office smash, Furious 7.  Also guesting is /Film's Angie Han.

If you missed it, I also did a commentary with Out Now for 2 Fast 2 Furious featuring Maxwell Haddad.  Find that clicking HERE.

Take some time today and give it a listen.  We also talk some trailers and a few other topics.

Slice By Slice: Ranking The TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES Movies

I don't know what it is, but I'm always going to have a soft spot for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.  I don't eat everything up, but when something of an event comes along with them...a new movie, a new show...my interest is always peaked.  My hardcore time has passed, but it was definitely THAT hardcore that I'm still call myself a fan.  One of these days I'm going to get to this new animated series and catch up and I'm actually kind of excited about that.  Honestly, when it comes to the Turtles on film, things aren't too strong.  They have one legitimately great film and the rest is a mixed bag ranging from awful to merely solid.  Let's see how I've placed them:

BATMAN - Commentary & The Year That Made Me A Bigger Film Lover

I know yesterday was the big anniversary of one of my all time favorite moviesTim Burton's BATMAN (its usually #2-5 if I make a list).  For one, if people were going to read one article about the movie, I preferred it to be Scott Mendelson's incredible box office and film trend history on it yesterday in FORBES.  And two, when I was gonna post this last night, I couldn't because my power was out. 

Podcast Guest Spot: Out Now With Aaron & Abe Celebrates Its 150th Episode!

The podcast I frequently guest on, OUT NOW WITH AARON & ABE has just hit the 150th episode milestone.  For this podcast, they brought on me, Scott Mendelson and Maxwell Haddad to discuss some of our all time favorite films (a top 20 mind you).  Jake Destree, you asked for this awhile back and you have received.  Granted, this is not a set list for me, as there's glaring omissions, stuff I would've liked to put on there but didn't have room, yada yada yada...its tough, okay?  haha.  Anyway, below is the link for your listening pleasure.  This is one the absolutely best film conversations I've had the pleasure of taking part it.  Its a longer episode, but it really wasn't long enough :)  Thanks for having me once again, Aaron & Abe!

Robocop Podcasts!

As sometimes occurs during these retrospective series, I get called up to guest on the show I boast the most, Out Now With Aaron and Abe.  In conjunction with the Robocop remake, I not only did the weekly episode for the show, but we also did another one of the popular commentaries on the original Robocop.  In addition to myself, the commentary features Aaron and Jim Dietz, and its actually a really great discussion about the Robocop series, remakes and filmmaking of the 1980s.  Its pretty impressive.  Be sure to check these out if you have the time.

For Your Listening Pleasure - TOKYO DRIFT Commentary on OUT NOW WITH AARON & ABE

Once again I return to OUT NOW for more commentary action.  This time coinciding with my TOKYO DRIFT retrospective.  I'm glad the guys brought me on board for this one, as I enjoyed it more the 2nd time around.  A film that people might instantly turn their nose up at, but its not bad at all.  This is also one of the funnest commentaries I've been a part of.  A lot of good laughs (hopefully for you too).  Enjoy!
